<TITLE>16. Par 71-75</TITLE>L-71 One of these days when that pulse is freezing out, death coming up your sleeve, you're getting cold; all your friends standing around, none of them can do nothing for you then, maybe in an automobile accident bleeding to death; under a car, a fire burning you up; drowned in the water; something killing you; you'll remember, "I put up my hand one night to Jesus." That's the most gallant thing you ever did.
Someone else just before closing? Someone else? God bless you. Someone back there? God bless you, young lady. God bless you, young man. That's right, put your hand right up like that. God bless you up there in the bal... Yes, lady, yes, God be with you. Back in here, God bless you, young man. God bless you, sir.

L-72 God bless you over here, back in this way, on the back of me, out in the balconies, out--or not in the balcony, I mean the vestibule. God bless you. He sees your hand, even if you're behind the doors there, and I can't see but that one little window. He sees your hand. Now, let us pray.
Heavenly Father, oh, how great Thou art. You stood at the door here tonight, and some fifty people or more, maybe seventy-five, raised their hands to receive You, knowing that You knocked at their door. It's written in the Word by our Lord, "No man can come to Me, except My Father draws him first. All that comes to Me, I will in no wise cast out."

L-73 Lord, they are the fruits of the message. Jesus, standing at the heart's door... The revival of my part here is closing for this session. God, I'm so glad they raised their hand. Now, I give them to You just now. And I'm praying, God, that the great Holy Spirit will let them go to one of these churches here somewhere, a good church that teaches the Bible, any church of their choice, and speak to their pastor, and say, "Pastor, I was down to the meeting the other night. I raised my hand to Christ. Won't you baptize me now in the Christian faith? I want to walk a straight, narrow road, and be a credit to my neighborhood and to all that I'm in contact with, and serve God, for I love Him."
O God, that pastor, he will be happy for that. And he will take care of Your child, I believe, Lord, like the good Samaritan who took him to the inn and said, "All right, if you lack anything, I'll pay you when I come." God grant it. In Jesus' Name, I present them to Thee. Amen.

L-74 I just hate to leave the meeting. I told them tonight before leaving; I said, "There's something about this meeting that's just gripped my heart." I think there's some here I won't see no more. If I come back a year from now, I... You won't be here, some of us. I may not be here a year from now. Some of us will be gone.
My testimony will have to stand in the Judgment with it then before you all. What good would it be doing me to give a wrong testimony? I'd rather be at home tonight with my little Joseph, playing with him, down at my the church, just standing there preaching.

L-75 How many is in the building, the first time they've ever been in one of my meetings, let's see your hand. Oh, you know it's a good thing that the crowd from the following night never gets here. It was claimed they turned several thousand away last night. If they'd all come at one time, we'd have to have a big tent somewhere. Never been in one of my meetings before... Now, friends, I--I don't claim to be a healer.
